As an aDC how do you deal with an enemy team comp with a lot of dive and assassins

I have trouble dealing damage as an ADC when the other team has many dives and assassins. I end up with a good score because I wait for them to use everything and i go in for the clean up. However, at the end of the game I deal very little damage to the enemy champions. How do i still be in range to auto them without being in danger

Kiting is good of course, but regarding the OP's question I don't see it helping much. Melee champs that can gap close to the ADC (Assassins or otherwise) cancel out kiting for the most part. An ADC needs their team to peel for them and generally control such champs to thrive. Beyond that using a mobile ADC helps.

Well, yeah, his team just needs to peel Not much he can do himself that I can think of besides take red buff, dash back wards after someone hops on him then kite like mad hoping team saves em in time

Kiting doesn't work so well now that so many champions have at least one gap closer.

There's really no way to be in range and not be in danger - it often becomes more of a balancing act.

When you wait for them to blow everything, you're relying on your team to survive long enough to hold out but go in too soon and you're liable to be burst in seconds.

If you're winning consistently enough, it's workin for you as surviving the teamfight gives your team a lot of pushing power.

If you're running into situations where additional damage could have potentially turned the tide, then you'd want to be figuring out when going in is worth the risk so to speak.

Stay as far behind as possible. It is not your role to attack the squishiest target. Attack whatever you can attack savely. Positioning is step 1. Step 2 is your support. Carry and support are roles were 2 champions together become stronger than 2 individually strong champions.
